what do you think about mundane threads on the board, like i just took a big shit, i'm here in the computer lab, my sister is sick, etc.? mindless babble or interesting get-to-know-you's?

I think they're a competition.
I try to post the most humorous reply I can sometimes.
But other times I just say somethiggn stupid (like this one)
Sometimes I'm trying to do one and I end up doing the other.

What kind of keys won't unlock a door? Turkeys!

personally i intend to ignore mundane topics completely, even if they reach the 50+ range. i was wondering if i was missing out on anything or if i'm right, it's just babble. i'm not saying i'm really busy but i can i say i don't have the time (nor interest) to read about people's trivial personal issues. now if it's a crisis (breakup with girlfriend, existentialist cry for help, whatever) that's another story, and those can be very interesting things to discuss. however, i've chanced upon some topics that seemed interesting from the title and they just end up being like, what color are your socks. anyway, thanks for the perspective fellas, and spoonz: post another message.

Mundane topics considered but not yet posted by DaWeeze:
-Are you gonna eat that? -How loud was my last fart? -My soda just went flat. -Confield r00lzs!...oh, wait...how did that get in here? -How many posts until Ophecks shuts it down? (A personal favorite)
And finally: -XLTronic was supposed to be up over a year ago!
Any additions, comments, suggestions welcome...;)

Basically...
They put me off coming here...
That sounds bad I know....but when I visit and find the top 20 topics devoted to saying Goodnight, My shit don't stink etc...it's somewhat sad....
There are a million topics deserving of discussion....and that's a better way of relieiving boredom than "Kilroy Was Here"....
Shit...I sound like a killjoy; but fuck, you lot know I like a laugh as much as anyone & some of what's posted is funny & amusing (but 80% isn't...).. ....
let's keep the free n easy atmosphere of this board so lets not let mindlessness totally take over....

at least with some of the shit topix on this board (this one, maybe?) we can start a good conversation about something worthwhile, right? such as 24 Hour Party People. a movie i've been meaning to watch and all that. will check it out sooner or later.

agreed...they could have done something pretty straightforward i.e. boring, which would have let th spirit Factory down really...great to see things wart'n'all...(and that didn;t play down the drug angle...which totally transformed the entire country at that time....)...
